not a surprrise. all those USC douchbags probably do it. strip him from DROY and give it to somebody who deserves it. hes not the first and certainly wont be the last. julius peppers also failed a test

Any idea which drug it was?

Also, is the suspension a 3rd strike type deal or one and done?

Yeah, you're right, and all those Irish douchebags are drunks. Oh wait.

I'll remind you that Matt Cassel and Willie McGinest were Trojans.

This. Wish I could say I was surprised

Just another example showing Pete Carroll didn't run the tightest ship out there. Glad the Pats didn't move up to get him--us fans would never hear the end of it!

Amazingly, the Commissioner is silent on stripping these cheaters of their honors (like DROY) which it is clear is in some measure due to PED use.

Yep, he was notorious in high-school football circles for turning from a scrawny nobody to a pumped-up hulk in an impossibly short time.

IOW, if it's true, the only suprising thing is that he got caught.

It's actually quite simple: DROY (and OROY, regular season MVP, etc.) is not awarded by the NFL itself.

OTOH, the rules for the one major award given out by the NFL—Pro Bowl honors—were changed after Shawne Merriman's suspension to specifically prohibit players in this situation from being voted to the Pro Bowl the season of their suspension (i.e., Cushing will not be returning to the Pro Bowl this year, period).
